I wanted to wait a while because we were on vacation at the time but the breeder called and said they were ready. The puppies were completely on puppy chow for a couple of weeks and the mother was withdrawing her attention. The two sisters loved playing together but the other pup was the favorite at the breeders so she was the socialized one. Zoe probably got used to not being handled much. To be honest I didn't even know what socialization was. My other 5 dogs..none yorkies..immediately bonded with me ...all at 6 weeks of age....all gifts....and i hadn't read anything about raising any of them. It all came naturally. But this situation is entirely different. And as for as stimulation...Zoe has plenty. lol
